WASHINGTON House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) quietly sent telecom giant AT&T a subpoena last week demanding more than a decade of phone records related to President Joe Bidens son. The Mar. 6 subpoena, obtained by HuffPost, gave AT&T two weeks to hand over all records of user activity, including texts and call logs, relating to Hunter Bidens accounts going back to 2011.
Comer issued the formal demand for Hunter Bidens phone records as part of Republicans impeachment inquiry against the president. So far, thousands of pages of Biden family bank records and more than a dozen witness interviews havent revealed wrongdoing by Joe Biden.
The impeachment effort suffered a spectacular setback last month when the Justice Department announced charges against an FBI informant whose allegedly false statements served as a key piece of evidence in the case against Biden. The AT&T subpoena shows, however, that Republicans have kept digging. Democrats on the committee, led by Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), blasted the subpoena on Tuesday in a staff memo obtained by HuffPost. Democrats said the subpoena would encompass 15 years worth of records even though it asked for material since 2011.
This subpoena for 15 years worth of Hunter Bidens phone records is just the latest evidence that Republicans investigation, which has failed to uncover so much as a scintilla of evidence of an impeachable offense by President Biden, is nothing more than a transparent effort by the Chairman to harass the President and his family, indulge [Donald] Trumps demands for political retribution, and amplify Russian propaganda and disinformation, the memo says.

I am very disappointed at the amount of power that is given and has been taken by the Right. It seems an endless battle when the planet is burning.

(22,176 posts)Idiots should talk to the FCC, and find out what's available, but they don't care what's legal or not. They'll yell and scream when they are told the truth that the phone companies don't keep stuff that long (it would take way too much DASD (direct access storage devices) to store these recordings. And, getting the records in two weeks? Ridiculous. If the older recordings are available, they're on magnetic tape storage somewhere in some archive.
